"Al, this will only take a moment," Ed called as he headed into the little game shop.

"Hello. How can I help you today?" asked the kid standing behind the counter.

"I was looking for a lead on the Philosopher's Stone," Ed said as he examined the kid's slightly wild mop of hair. "Um, how tall are you?"

The kid grinned. "Five feet if you include the hair." He pointed over his shoulder towards the back room. "Grandpa's shorter."

Ed stared for a moment. "Finally! I found someone my own age shorter than me!" he yelled.

"He's excited that someone's shorter than him?"

"Apparently Yami. I never knew someone could be that excited about something that simple."
